History

The Blue Condominium, is an apartment building in the Exarcheia neighborhood of Athens, Greece. It lies on the corner of Arachovis and Themistokleous Streets, adjacent to Exarcheia square and was built in 1932–1933 for Kyriakos Panagiotakos, the architect who designed the building. Being a very important example of modern architecture in Athens, it was designed by architect Kyriakoulis Panagiotakos. It took its nickname from the initial dark blue colour of its façade, which was selected by painter Spyros Papaloukas.
